EMBARRASSING.
The Tragedy
of the
Lights.

"TfcOKE light are very hard to ma
jT nipiilate," Nti id young Blffklns.
"They are inude that way ou
purpose. They run like this:
1 2 3 4 1
0 0 0 0 0
"You would naturally think that, be
ginning ou the left. No. 1 would light
the porch. No. 'J the parlor. No. 3 the
dining room, No. 4 the bathroom and
No. 5 the bedroom. Hut that is not
the way it works.
"The very Brat one is for the bath
room. No. 2 is the porch light. No. 3
lights the parlor. No. 4 lights the bed
room and No. 5 lights the dining room.
"One evening last summer 1 wanted
to go downstairs and get a drink of
water. All the lights were out be
cause it was so warm and for other
reasons. Uncle Billy was taking a
bath in the dark because It was too
warm to pull down the shade. 1 did
not want any light because 1 had re
tired and was Just sneaking down In
my pajamas to get a drink of water.
No shades were down anywhere, and
the families of the entire neighbor
hood were out on their respective
porches.
"Anna and the young man to whom
she is engaged were sitting on the front
steps. They didn't want any light.
"What I wanted to do was to light
tip the dining room for just a minute,
so that 1 would get light enough in the
ball to avoid the place where 1 knew
I. must stub my toe at the turn of the
stairs. I poked a peg. and there were
no results that I could see.
"I poked again. This act was fol
lowed by a scream. There was also
applause from across the street and
then there came catcalls and such ex
presslons as 'Oh. you Romeo and Ju
liet! There was also a commotion on
the front steps.
"1 quickly poked again. This time
there was a glaring light all around
me. and I was the recipient of cheers.
I hastened to relieve myself from the
embarrassing prominence. Then I
tried another light.
"This time I oapiwd the climax. A
splash was heard In the bathroom and
the stentorian tones of Uncle Bljly
came through the night: 'Ulgh. there"
Turn off the light: Quick!- I had at
traded the attention of the neighbor
hood to Uncle Billy.'

When it begins. 1 want to go , ,
An' git a lob to work at flo
Mo more at present." I wrote then
Beneath, "Tour lovin' little Bea."
When dad turned up his plat an' seea
The note he took It up between
His thumb an' finger this away
An' read it through an' didn't say
A word, but give a sort o' trowa
An' folded It an' laid it down
An' et his supper. Then he lit
His pipe an' set there smokln' It
Till bedtime. Then X said good night,
An' he said: "Good night, son! Sleep

Dad had gone to his work in town,
An' when 1 turned my plate up, gee,
There was another note for me!
It said: "Dear son, by this you'll know

To school when school begins again.
Schools are for boys and work for men.
